Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council

Permanent flagpole plan after huge Miner display

Walsall Council proposes permanent flagpoles at Miner Island after flags sparked debate last year.

Walsall's Graham Eardley disputes the claims and announces plans to join Restore Britain.

Dennis Anson was known for his fundraising work for Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research.

Residents and business owners in Willenhall first complained about the rubbish in October.

Applicant Connor Butler says five full-time jobs will be created should the plans be approved.

The 115 homes will be built on Longwood Lane and will include affordable housing.

As well as tax rises, Walsall Council's plans include raising parking fees and cutting library hours.

Waste including sofas, mattresses, skips and rubble has been dumped on roads in Willenhall.

Aldridge residents fear planning changes will see "inappropriate" development on green belt land.
